We at the Yandek Family Blog are happy to report that Libby and Mary remain committed to their goal of squeezing every little bit of fun that they possibly can out of the Summer of 2011. The big event of recent weeks is the Libby and Mary hosted their very first sleepover! Mom and Dad invited friends and family over to cook out and watch the fireworks at Bohlken Park for the annual Fairview Summerfest. Of course, before any of that took place, Libby had to try all the rides at the Summerfest Carnival. Being a seasoned veteran of Kiddie Park, the Summerfest Carnivale didn't hold the same cache--the rides were kinda lame, but Libby and Dad still enjoyed themselves. It didn't hurt that Libby won a giant inflatable Dora at one of the midway games!
That night was the cookout. After the kids had their burgers and dogs, it was time for--lightsabres and swords. That's right, nothing says summertime like a good old fashioned sword fight. Unfortunately, for poor Camden, his puny "regular" sword didn't stand a chance against Jedi Masters Libby and Corinne. The kids also played in the pool, lit sparklers and were sure to leave no stone unturned in the house! The evening ended with fireworks and Claire and Corinne sleeping over. While Mary was sojourned in her room, Libby and her cousins bunked in Libby's room. Everyone actually slept, although Libby was up WAY past her bedtime.
The first ever cousins sleepover ended as any proper sleepover should, with Dad's pancakes! And that was just the beginning of another great day of fun, as Libby and Mary and their cousins went to Grammie and Papa Hanna's for Aunt Reen's birthday party. Now, let's be clear about this...despite the kiddie pool, the pinata, the ice cream cake, and all the people, Aunt Reen is actually a grown-up. But that didn't stop her from getting all the fun stuff for a kid's birthday party!
Everyone took their whacks at the pinata before finally cashing in on all the cool stuff inside. It was such a hot day that the kiddie pool was put to good use. And the ice cream cake was a big hit as well. As were the cupcake cones that Grammie made! Another great summer weekend for the Yandek Girls!
